Was listening to the Bradley Cooper interview on Howard Stern this morning and it really pushed me over the edge in wanting to see this movie. The trailer looks great already, it's a Clint Eastwood flick, and Bradley Cooper came across as an honest, hardworking, dedicated actor who puts his all into his craft. His respect for Chris Kyle and the military in general was endearing. Has anyone seen it yet? Anyone else going to see it this weekend?

Michael Moore Says All Snipers are ‘Cowards’ -

Michael Moore, the increasingly-irrelevant “documentarian” from the early 2000’s, evidently, is not a fan of the new hit biopic, “American Sniper.” Further, it seems that Moore is not a fan of former Navy Seal and decorated sniper Chris Kyle, the subject of the film. In fact, Moore did not mince words as he labeled…
